To ALL WHoM IT MAY CIONCERN; v

Be it known that I, Joint,s G. PERRY, of South Ki.gston, in thecounty ofWashington,i n lthe Stnte of Rhode island, have invented new. und usefulImprovem nts in' Machin-es for Filling sausages; and'I do herebyl-declore that the following is a full and correct d 'escripti u'thereof,reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part ofthislspeciticntion, and to the l tters of` reference marked thereon,similcr letters in all the figures denoting the saxlhe parts.

'Figure 1 is a. perspective *ieivhof the machine.

Figure 2 is a horizontal election'.

'Ehe construction otmy-iznproveufiller isssrfollowsel-A-isninohlongcasq-svith a circular snpportingdange,

a. A screw, C, is placed lengllhways in the'ease, sind tnrpsin bearingsat either and. One half of the screw hs a. right-hand thread made uponit, and the other half has u left-hand thread, and upon each half is putc follower, o o, having screw-threads cut in their holes'to correspondwith the threads upon their ,respective divisions of the shaft or screw.The screw C is' placed on one sidie of theoentire ofthe case, to preventthefollowei-s o a from turning around iu the case, and also to allow ofthelcase being more readily lled with meat, or the screws may be placedin the centre of the case, and n. spline inserted, 'tc prevent thefollowers from turning. The followers o o are connected together by arod, S, to prevent them from getting out of their proper relativeposition to euch other when taken out oi' the case. An openiing, az,with n. nozzle,`is madelin one side of the fillercnse for the meut to bedischarged through. An openin 1,'D, with n cover, d, is made in theupper part of the ease, for the purpose of filling it with moet. Thescrew lime bearings in the ends ofthe case,so thzit the screw. does notmove iii or out of the cose when turned.

The operation is as follonjs: The crank, J, is turned backwards untilthe ollowersp o are at the ends of the cuse, and the space between themhaving been filled withimeat through the opening D, tho covo-r is closedand secured by the catch z. The crank, J, is now turned foijward, andthe follower or vfollowers moved upon 'the screw, and the meat forcedout of the nozzle L into the chses. v

The great advantage obtained is the ense and rapidiiywith which the workis accomplished. Having thus described my sausage-filler, I claim-- Oneor more of the followers o o, in combination with the' screw C, allSv'okiugwithin the case, sitbstauI I tinlly as. described and for thepurposeset forth.
